hey everyone -

i thought it might be interesting to hear from others and their stories...

how many of you have had "bunk bark", constantly being frustrated with low or zero yields while doing the tek(s) to the letter? and perhaps, even more useful, having great success with different bark?

after trying two teks, two times each, i am flabbergasted! each time the tek was followed precisely, using a Ph meter, diligence, safety and patience. the yields were embarrassing, yet the potency of the minute amount produced was all there and quite fantastic.

just thought it might be "uplifting" to hear of others' stories, and then later successes. it would give hope to those of us scratching our heads wondering where those pyrex dishes are, coated with spice upon removing from the freezer

looking forward to hearing some tales!

cheers

Greetings amigo
Here in Mexico you can find mimosa hostilis trunk bark practically in every Hierberia (herbalist store) and there´s one in every neighborhood and is very cheap.
Now MHRB is a very different story. Considering the difference in between prices I can see how some scammers do their money.
Once I heard that sometimes they dry the bark by exposing it to direct fire, so if it wasn´t a scam maybe the alks were burned in a bad drying process.

I've had issues with lousy bark, it never used to be that way.
It's really a crappy bummer actually.
Quite discouraging

What a bummer, I guess we'll all just have to grow our own.
